Great Place to Work
About this episode

On this episode of the Better podcast, Alexi Robichaux, co-founder and CEO of BetterUp, talks about the most powerful way to recognize your people, the importance of inner work, and the connection between meaningful work and giving extra on the job.

You’ll hear him talk about why we should stop thinking of management as supervisors and more as catalytic converters, and the three jobs everyone has at BetterUp. (Hint: the job you’re hired for is last on the priority list.)

You’ll also learn about the Camino de Santiago trail—a pilgrimage across Spain—and how that experience influenced Alexi’s approach to culture.

If you like what you hear on the podcast, be sure to subscribe to our company culture newsletter.
